In lumber shipments to England.
When the suspension was first reported. in
Vulnerable rumors affecting the standing of
other concerns obtained circulation, but these,
IN great measure, were without foundation.
IL Is known that the banks suspension has been
chiefly brought about by complications with two

an immense business, but so far details as to

most immediate cause of the failure was
the return to the bank Of quantity of
English exchange. The New Brunswick gov

Bank, but what amount was held to its credit is
unknown. The stockholders the bank are

making upon his flock, and challenged Elder
Cornish to a joint debate. The first of the
contests took place Saturday night and was
attended by large crowd. On Tuesday
night, the crowd became boisterous, and Rev.
Davis was driven from the church. escaping by
window. The Mormon chairman of the meet
ing slashed around wildly with chair, and
knocked down half dozen saints and gentiles in
his efforts to preserve peace. The third contest
took place yesterday afternoon. and the church
was crowed at an early hour Davis was
promptly on hand, and evinced desire to carry
on the debate according to parliamentary
rules, but Cornish opened with a volley
of personal abuse of his opp onent
amidst the remonstrances of the men and women
present. His language became so brutal and
threatening that, fearing fight, panic seized

FREIGHTS On WOOL.
The Railways Requested to Assist the Grow
ers by Redistribution Of Rates.

CHICAGO, March 8-The Wool-merchanss
Association of Chicago has submitted to the
isiat Western classification ccn,,1aittee q mem
orai ana petition for the reclassihca,n,n Of
wool, as to place it in the third class, it hay
ing been rated heretofore as first class freight
The petition has been signed by the wool mer
chants of Chicago Milwaukee, ST. Louis, Louis
vile, Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Cleveland De-
troit and other smaller distributing points in
the West; also. by the wool merchants
of Boston. New York and Philadel-
phia, aud the leading wool manufacturers

growers and shippers from interior points
throughout the West have already sigued the
petition These numerous petitioners, it is
claimed represent the annual handling of more
than 00000 900 pounds OF WOOL It is urged
that the wool growing industry has been, during
the past few years, greatly depressed, and in
many sections has proved disastrous. The de-
cline in the value of wool during the past fifteen
years has been from 65, 60. so and 40 cents to
80. 20, 70 and 10 cents per pound. The entire
clip Of the United States during the
past two years has not paid to the wool
growers an average price exceeding IL cents per
pound. For this reason the clip has been re-
duced. varioualy estimated, from 1000. 900 to
%. 0O0, 600 pounds during the past year. whereas
had the business shown no actual loss the nat
ural increase would have neen Is to 30 per cent
annually Should the petition be granted it is
claimed that it would give new life to tho dis
couraged growers and do much to invigorate
this languishing industry of the West.

Other Failures.

ST. LOUIS March S.-The firm Of Humphrey.
Blake d Co., cotton commission merchants,
made assignment to-day for benefit of their
creditors. They estimate their liabilities at $40.-
900 and assets at $50, 600. They expect to make
satisfactory settlement with their creditors
and continue in business. Their failure is stated
to have been due to depreciation in securities
held by them.
LOUISVILLE, March 8.-Wall, Smith & Co.,
proprietors OF the Gilbert tobacco warehouse
made a general assignment for the benefit Of
creditors this afternoon. The liabilities are es-
timated at $50, 900. due to banks in this city
The assets placed at $4,000. The cause of
the assignment, it IS claimed, is dizziness in the
trade. Sales have been dull, and the firms paper
was out principally for advances MADE upon
crops, in many cases six months in advance, and
upon which they could not realize.
